Fireball XL5 is the name of an indie-pop show hosted by Frank Seglenieks that for 18 years was on CKMS 100.3 FM Radio Waterloo. However, as a result of a format change in mid-2008, Fireball XL5 is now heard only as a podcast.

Of course I stole the name of the show from the 60s British Supermarionation program, which featured puppets kind of like the movie Team America.

I play alternative music that usually classified as indie-pop with the occasional feature on a particular artist or theme as well as discussions on pop culture topics of the day. I start off each show with the best song that I have heard since the last
show.

Note that the links to shows older than 6 months might not be working, if you really want those shows please send me an email and I can get them to you.

November 27, 1999

Yes, once again we were on the air this past week, I still haven't been
able to get in touch with the guy I'm "supposed" to be alternating with.
Also once again I did a spotlight on somebody I didn't see, the Wednesday
before the show Lloyd Cole played in Toronto, but because I didn't hear
about it in time as I was on vacation I couldn't get a ticket.
